TSG offers several courses on EMTALA ranging from a comprehensive offering to a more limited course specifically for physicians on call for the emergency department. Several of the nation’s largest health care organizations look to TSG for web-based EMTALA education.\nToday more than ever it is critical that medical staff in the emergency department, urgent care facilities, labor and delivery, physicians on call for the emergency department, and hospital administrators understand EMTALA and related issues. The failure to understand this law and its regulations will inevitably result in violations of the law, and expose you to liability. Additionally, the hospital is at risk for substantial fines and loss of participation in the Medicare program.\nTSG web-based education is enjoyable, interactive, and provides CME and CE credit. The courses are accredited for CME by The Sullivan Group and for CE by the Ohio Nurses Association.\n\n \n\n\n\n\nInterpretive Guidelines – July 16, 2010\n\n\n\nInterpretive Guidelines – May 29, 2009\n\n\n\nCMS Addresses Swine Flu: August 14, 2009\n\n\n\nCMS Final Rule Revisions to EMTALA March 6, 2009\n\n\n\nFinal Regulation August 2008 (supplements and updates 2003 Regulations)\n\n\n\nProposed New EMTALA Regulations April 30, 2008\n\n\n\nCMS Hamilton Memo, March 8, 2008\n\n\n\nSummary of Changes, March 8, 2008\n\n\n\nUpdated Interpretive Guidelines, March 8, 2008 Advance Copy\n\n\n\nCMS Mode of Transport Reg 2007\n\n\n\nCMS Telecommunications Reg 2007\n\n\n\nCMS Definition of Labor Reg 2006\n\n\n\nCMS Patients on EMS Stretchers Reg 2006\n\n\n\nCMS On-Call Pay Advisory\n\n\n\nNew 2004 Interpretive Guidelines\n\n\n\nFinal EMTALA Rules, September 2003.

As new cases are reported in the legal literature, TSG will add them to this site. You may search the site by general category like \u201cComes to the Emergency Department\u201d or \u201cFailure to Provide a Medical Screening Examination,\u201d or can simply enter search terms for cases that meet a particular need.\nThe EMTALA Reporter provides an outstanding education in EMTALA law and an interesting look at the federal court system. Some of the cases are mundane, several are absolutely outrageous. Enjoy!\n \nCMS Reporter\nAssist TSG in building The CMS Reporter. TSG will obtain information regarding EMTALA violations through the Freedom of Information Act and will periodically publish those accounts in this Reporter. However, if you have gone through a CMS review and have been sanctioned in some fashion, consider submitting information regarding your experience in order to assist and educate other emergency health professionals.\n \nEMTALA Quiz\nTake the EMTALA challenge! This is a short quiz designed to test your EMTALA knowledge base. The EMTALA challenge consists of 15 questions and it must be completed in one sitting. The questions are taken from the TSG Medical Legal Series of web-based courses. Good luck!\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
